Abstract

Cell-free membrane protein (MP) synthesis in the presence of liposomes is a spotlighting technique to prepare MP-reconstituted liposomes. In article number 1800524, Kazunari Akiyoshi and co-workers develop an artificial MP sorting system based on polyhistidine/nickel-chelate affinity. This system enables efficient reconstitution of MPs into the liposomal membrane to be achieved, and supplementations of natural molecular chaperone can control the orientation of MPs.
